Cox Business Center

Easily accessible in downtown Tulsa’s Arena District, Cox Business Convention Center is an award-winning modern venue that offers creative, flexible spaces for both small and large events. The center routinely hosts galas, dance shows, business conferences, and much more. 

On average, 185,000 people go in and out of the convention center each year, and with the high amount of foot traffic, the venue places a high priority on maintaining clean, sustainable restrooms for all guests to use. Sloan, a proud partner of the facility for years, recently worked to install more than 30 state-of-the-art restroom products including Designer Series™ Gradient Sinks, along with new faucets, soap dispensers, and flushometers, further simplifying the restroom experience for guests and facility maintenance staff.

Hosting with High-Design in Mind

Known for hosting high-profile galas and balls, the convention center wanted its restrooms to match that high-end aesthetic. Cox Business Convention Center opted for Sloan’s Designer Series Gradient Sinks, which features an on-deck faucet and soap dispenser. All products work together as a highly efficient, touch-free, hygienic system which maximizes space and allows for a clean design. Most importantly, the designer sinks receive rave reviews from guests, no matter what event the convention center is hosting.

The Sinks Are All the Rave

Most importantly, the designer sinks receive rave reviews from guests, no matter what event the convention center is hosting. “We wanted to provide our guests with something they don’t normally see,” said Willie Williams, Cox Business Center Director of Operations. “Typically, they would encounter traditional sinks, so we wanted to give them something to talk about when they leave.”

Simplicity for Everyone 

The convention center specified Sloan’s suite of touch-free products to provide its guests with a hygienic and convenient restroom experience, and that decision proved to be fortuitous when the COVID-19 pandemic hit. Hosting events for a variety of clients and audiences—ranging from youth wrestling to dance groups—an entirely hands-free restroom experience promotes proper hand hygiene and overall health and wellness amongst guests. Visitors can rest easy knowing the center and its restrooms are safe and hygienic, while facility upkeep is greatly reduced thanks to products with best-in-class Sloan parts which enhance product shelf life and durability.

Speaking Volumes

Additionally, more than 100 Sloan flushometers were installed at the center, including the hands-free, water-saving Royal® 111 SMO and Royal 180 SMO. Made with sophisticated materials, computerized engineering design, and ingrained quality, Royal Flushometers continue to set the industry standard for commercial restroom applications.
